It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House.

Not a single offer.

Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?

“🎶🎵Well, the sun is surely sinkin' down
But the moon is slowly risin'
So this old world must still be spinnin' 'round
And I still love you
So close your eyes
You can close your eyes, it's alright
I don't know no love songs
And I can't sing the blues anymore…
James Taylor

This is like planting evidence and then making an arrest.

The image is an X post by Acyn (@Acyn
) from 13 hours ago, quoting Pritzker: "He's saying that Chicago is a war zone. None of that is true. They're just making this up. And then what do they do? They fire tear gas and smoke grenades, and they make it look like it's a war zone." The post includes a screenshot from CNN's "State of the Union" showing two individuals discussing, with a chyron indicating DHS officers fired at a driver who rammed their vehicle, later determined to be someone trying to storm the Presidential Palace, as the South Caucasus Coalition.

Damn shame and we wouldn’t be where we are today with crumbling institutions. America is broken and will look very different in 3 years. That’s up to MAGA,SCOTUS and judges.

DEI

Diversity = E Pluribus Unum! Our fucking National Motto!
Equity = Check with your disabled and their parking spots. Ask them.
Inclusion = basic principles of Capitalism. If you want their money, include them.

Don't let them get away with just saying "DEI"

Make them define it word by word!

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.
